He's saying, if you were in the AF and I asked you to shoot him, would you? I think that's more the intent (correct me if I'm wrong PETKO).

<p>I don't really remember now, but I believe I was told to assume that we were both active duty (and obviously that he outranked me). I guess that makes the question a little more fair, but it's still not easy to answer. </p>

<p>If I were an interviewer, I'd try to come up with at least one question that I didn't think my candidate would be ready for - one for which he hadn't prepared in advance. You can learn a lot more about somebody if they're forced to answer on the spot then if they've had time to prepare. A lot of what they're looking for lies in how you respond, rather than in what you actually say. The same is true for certain things here and in the operational Air Force (stand-up, for example). Just remain calm and collected, take a second to think, and speak clearly and confidently. You'll do great.</p>
